Could someone update the Create guides?

[zookeeper]

Code: Select all

	id=Journey_to_the_West		//for savefiles
	name = _"Journey to the West"
	abbrev=_"JttW"				//heading for savefiles

// doesn't denote a comment in WML, # does... so most likely the game chokes on those when trying to create the savefile.

It works now, thanks for pointing that out.

Next issue, how do you make a unit appear on a hex that isn't a keep? I'm trying to get a leader to appear on the board, then walk to a keep.

Looking at HttT: Isle of Alduin, this code is used:

Code: Select all

[move_unit_fake]
            type=$konrad_store.type
            side=1
            x=30,29,28,27,26,26
            y=11,11,11,12,12,13
        [/move_unit_fake]

What I don't know is what the konrad_store part means, is that a class or a variable or what? Is it actually necessary to make a fake unit first, because I see in DiD: Alone at Last, that the code makes the real unit, then moves them.

Set the starting location in the map editor, then use [wiki=DirectActionsWML#.5Bmove_unit.5D][move_unit][/wiki].

It's a variable. WML doesn't have classes. Look above the [wiki=InterfaceActionsWML#.5Bmove_unit_fake.5D][move_unit_fake][/wiki] for a [wiki=InternalActionsWML#.5Bstore_unit.5D][store_unit][/wiki] and below it for an [wiki=DirectActionsWML#.5Bunstore_unit.5D][unstore_unit][/wiki].
